Justin Timberlake's Shocking Outburst: Crew Tension at UK Concert!

Explosive video has surfaced of Justin Timberlake completely losing it on his stage crew in the middle of his set at England¿s Lytham Festival earlier this month.

TIMBERLAKE TAKES THE STAGE...AND THEN TAKES OUT HIS FRUSTRATION ON HIS CREW!

In a shocking display of pop star rage, Justin Timberlake was caught on camera completely losing his cool with his stage crew at England's Lytham Festival earlier this month. The 44-year-old superstar, known for his smooth moves and catchy tunes, suddenly snapped when sound issues disrupted his performance of Cry Me a River.

The viral video shows JT initially trying to keep his cool, chatting calmly with a crew member who checks his watch, seemingly estimating the time it would take to fix the problem. But things quickly took a turn for the worse. When a second crew member approached, Timberlake's patience wore thin and he launched into a furious tirade that left onlookers stunned.

At one point, the singer even dramatically slashed his hand across his neck in a "cut it off" gesture before turning his back on the crew and storming away mid-show. The crowd was left gasping in shock as the usually composed Timberlake melted down under pressure.

FANS WEIGH IN: WAS JT RIGHT TO BE IRRITATED?

Critics took to social media to weigh in on Timberlake's behavior, with some calling him "unprofessional" for snapping at his crew. One commenter blasted, "Losing it with your support crew is considered highly unprofessional in the world of stage performance." Another chimed in, saying, "He mad about anything and everything."
